Katherine Aron-Beller photographed by the Venetian Harbour in Chania during her family holiday

Yannis is an excellent photographer who has the ability to relate, cater for and understand his audience very quickly. Not only are his photographs of a high quality but he makes the process of taking them fun and unobtrusive. Yannis showed us corners of Chania we would never have seen without him, nor would we have known that they hold the background for the best photographs. He managed to capture the wonderful memories of our family holiday for posterity. Not an easy achievement. I recommend him fully and wholeheartedly.

Handra Cazacu with her husband and their young daughter at sunset in Agia Marina

We had such a wonderful experience with Yannis! From the very beginning, communication was excellent — he was friendly, professional and made us feel completely comfortable during the photoshoot. We did a sunset session in Agia Marina with my husband and our little daughter, and the photos turned out absolutely beautiful. He captured some really special and natural moments of our family, and I especially love the photos at sunset and in the water. He was also very patient and lovely with our daughter, which meant a lot to us. The whole experience felt relaxed and enjoyable, and the final photos are memories we will treasure forever. I would definitely recommend Yannis to anyone visiting Chania and looking for a talented and professional photographer. Thank you so much!

Ambreen Khowaja with her husband and two daughters in a Chania Old Town alley

We had an incredible experience with our family photoshoot in Chania! From start to finish, everything was seamless. He was professional, efficient, and had an amazing eye for every detail—from the lighting and backgrounds to the little candid moments that made the photos feel so natural. We never felt rushed, yet he captured so many beautiful memories in such a short amount of time. We absolutely love the photos and will treasure them for years to come. Highly recommend!

Questions people ask

How many photographs will we receive?

At least 25 carefully selected photographs on the standard experiences, 30+ on Chania Story and 35+ on Large Family Story. I photograph freely during the session and then choose the strongest frames, so some galleries naturally contain more. What I will not do is hand over hundreds of near-identical photographs.

How long is a session?

Most sessions are 45–60 minutes. Chania Story and Large Family Story are around 90 minutes.

How do we reserve our date?

A €50 booking fee secures the date and is included in the total price. The balance is paid on the day. The fee is non-refundable if you cancel, because the time has been held for you, but I'm happy to move your session once where availability allows.

When will we receive our photographs?

Normally 3–5 business days. Next-day priority delivery is +€69 if you're leaving soon or want them while you're still on the island.

How many people are included?

Up to 4 people are included. For 5 to 7 people it's +€25 per additional person. For 8 or more, the Large Family Story is designed for you.
